'''Kritters''' are a type of [[Kremling]] and the main foot soldiers of the [[Kremling Krew]], led by [[King K. Rool]]. Kritters come in a variety of colors, but are most commonly colored green or blue. As a basic representative, Kritters are named "Kremling" in some of their game appearances. Kritters first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', and they sometimes appear in spinoff games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. | '''Kritters''' are a type of [[Kremling]] and the main foot soldiers of the [[Kremling Krew]], led by [[King K.

Likewise, a distinct Kremling variety formed by [[Kaboing]]s, which have two peg legs, replace ''Donkey Kong Country's'' jumping Kritters. Compared to the Kritters of the previous game, these varieties have a more upright posture, presumably due to their peg legs. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', Kritters were replaced by a different type of Kremling, [[Kobble]]s, while jumping Kritters are replaced by [[Re-Koil]]s. | ||

During the boxing match between the Kongs and [[King K. Rool|K. Rool]], there are two Kritters who ring the bell to start the match. Both of them are wearing a tuxedo equivalent of the traditional outfit worn by Kritters; some other Kritters attempting to pull off a stadium light from K. Rool's head also wear this outfit. Whenever K. Rool is knocked down between rounds, the count to 10 starts. The Kritters always ring the bell once it reaches 8, by pressing a red button on either side of the bell. One of the Kritters has dim and silly behavior, for instance during one of the countdowns, it is waving the wrong way and only realizes this when the other Kritter rings the bell. After [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]] wins her round, both Kritters slam a button at the same time and accidentally break the bell. As a result, they cannot save K. Rool from losing the match after [[Chunky Kong|Chunky]] beats him. | During the boxing match between the Kongs and [[King K. Rool|K.

Kritters also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'', where they are simply referred to as "Kremlings" in the English version. Kremlings are able to climb, swing and attack from [[peg]]s like [[Donkey Kong]]. If there are nearby rocks and bombs, the Kremling tries throwing it at Donkey Kong. There is also an unlockable Kremling in the Jungle Jam mode, the first playable appearance of a Kritter, and it can be unlocked by obtaining six gold medals. Kremling has the same stats as Donkey Kong, and its attack and jumping stats are balanced. | Kritters also appear in ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'', where they are simply referred to as "Kremlings" in the English version.

Starting with ''[[DK: King of Swing]]'', Kritters received another redesign. They are significantly more muscular, especially in their chest and arms, and have a rounder snout and head. Their redesign also includes tattered tan pants and spiked wristbands.

Green Kritters, for example, walk in a straight line and don't jump, but blue Kritters hop along the ground in a straight line.
